Hi, I just created a 30-day trial account of 1Password and merged my locally stored vault with the newly created cloud vault. Quite surprisingly for me, I then realised that I can see all the passwords in the web user interface. So I was thinking how this is possible and how secure this is - where do you decrypt my passwords and how do you send them over the internet (even though through SSL encryption).

Could you please confirm (or correct me) if my rather non-professional idea of how this works is correct?

I guess that after I login in my web browser, some javascript class locally running in my browser takes my Master Password and my Account Key (not sending them anywhere!) and establishes some kind encryption/decryption API to 1Password's server. Is this the thing that is done using W3C WebCrypto API, as you boast on your site? Therefore, all the decrypted views into my vault and passwords are created strictly locally by javascript in my browser, and everything that is sent from you is still MasterPass+Account_Key encrypted (and sent over SSL)?

But it also means that all the passwords are as vulnerable as my web browser and it can potentially be hijacked by some malicious javascript running secretly in my browser - is that right?

@rompi
: Absolutely! I'm glad you asked! Indeed, even when you use 1Password.com, your data is encrypted on your device, so all the server ever ends up with is an encrypted blob. And since the Account Key is created locally, your Master Password is only known by you, and neither is ever transmitted, no one — including AgileBits — has the means to decrypt the data.

WebCrypto precisely!

The implications are all the broader because Amazon and Alibaba, the industry’s two most innovative companies, do not define themselves as retailers at all. Amazon does not just sell goods: it leases cargo planes, produces films and offers a voice assistant, Alexa. Its cloud-computing business, Amazon Web Services (AWS), powers its own operations along with those of many other firms and is a vital source of profits, keeping its investors patient. Alibaba’s business is even broader than Amazon’s, including not just shopping, entertainment and cloud computing but payments and social media as well. Both companies’ activities generate cash and rich streams of data which can be used to improve their existing services and add more. Alibaba describes itself as providing the pipes and cables for all kinds of business. “To some extent we are a utility company,” says Daniel Zhang, its chief executive. “We are trying to provide an infrastructure for digital commerce.”

Consumers have already gained much from all this, with more in prospect. They are enjoying a broader choice of goods and more price transparency than ever before. Instead of spending time travelling to shops, picking up goods and waiting in queues, they can now do other things. Companies no longer take them for granted but compete to offer them better products, greater convenience and improved service.

For bricks-and-mortar shops these are difficult times. In some parts of the world shopping malls are being blighted as their customers move online and are served from vast warehouses instead. Many traditional retail jobs will vanish as shops close and the remaining ones use more automation. Some new jobs will be created, but they may not make up for those that have gone. And electronic tracking of consumers in order to sell them more stuff will become ever more intrusive.

This special report will examine the effect of these changes on the retail industry and those linked to it, such as logistics, marketing and manufacturing, and assess their broader impact on society. It will begin by looking at the role played by America’s and China’s twin e-commerce giants, Amazon and Alibaba.

Samsung's latest Galaxy S9 Plus is in the top position of this list thanks to an incredible design, amazing display and some truly great power packed into the phone.

Everything that has made Samsung phones great over the last few years has been packed into this 6.2-inch device - that's almost bezeless too - and comes with top of the range hardware and some easy to use Android software.

Samsung has added a dual-camera to the rear to enhance low-light photography, plus there's a better located fingerprint scanner and 960fps slo-motion video recording.

Levamisole is an antihelminthic chemical compounds used to treat the nematodes infection in human and animals as well (

). It can stimulate immune response
in vitro
. Levamisole enhanced phagocytic activity, the NBT reaction and increase antibody producing cells oral administration of levamisole increased the number of leucocytes, lysozyme activities in serum and the stimulated NBT reduction and phagocytic index of phagocytic cells [

]. However, no differences were found in the levels of hematocrit, leucocrit or immunoglobulin using levamisole in rainbow trout [

]. Findlay et al. [

] reported that LPS can stimulate phagocytosis and the production of superoxide anions in Atlantic salmon
macrophages
and LPS can stimulate B-cell proliferation and enhance macrophage phagocytic activity in red sea bream
Pagrus major
. Also, LPS stimulates the production of macrophage activating factor in goldfish lymphocytes [

]. These substances are very potent even in very low doses and may occur as contaminants in bacterin preparations and used in fish immunizing programmes. LPS stimulate hemocytes proliferation; enhance phagocytic activity as well as the microbicidal activity of shrimp [
